Edinburgh rockers Swim School have thanked Scots for giving them an audience at TRNSMT - despite being announced for the festival just six hours before taking to the stage.
The four-piece indie-pop outfit was booked as a last-minute replacement for Years and Years after it was forced to cancel due to illness. In a statement, Olly Alexander apologised to disappointed fans and expressed his hopes to return to the TRNSMT stage sometime in the future.
He said: “I’m so sorry for this but I won’t be performing tomorrow at TRNSMT, I have an infection and my doctor has told me I’m not well enough to do the show.
“I’m really sorry to anybody hoping to see us, I hate to do this and I’m absolutely gutted not to be there. I hope everybody has a great time at the festival and hopefully we can come back another time.”
